We are about to start the race: Pacific Cup 2010, from San Francisco to Kaneohe Bay, Hawaii.  The VALIS crew is:

David Nabors, Edward Killeen, Tirso, John Clinton, Rich Jones, and me, Paul Elliott.  Unfortunately, Paul Carson and Jack Thomas had other obligations — they will be missed, and I look forward to sailing with them again in the future.

We will be sending semi-regular updates to this blog, and you can see our (slightly delayed) positions on the Pacific Cup race tracking website: http://www.ionearth.com/2010/pacific-cup/

We start Monday, around 11:45 AM.  You can watch us, for a while, via our AIS tracker: http://www.sailvalis.com/AisTracking.htm

The St. Francis Yacht Club has a webcam that is supposed to be monitoring the starting line: http://207.150.197.186/
